It's nice to make your virtual acquaintance!
My name is Tracy, and I hail from the wonderful Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
I'm 38 and after bouncing about in different careers; collection agent, car sales, a rather lengthy stint in film/television production (the ridiculous photo below of me on the shoulders of a midget, and yes that's what they like to be called, is from my production days), a handful of years in the political/think tanky world, but I recently decided to be a grown up and go to work for my family's business. Now I'm doing what everyone told Dustin Hoffman to do in "The Graduate", working in plastics.
It's been a wild ride. I've worked with all sorts of interesting people. Alas, non-disclosure agreements prohibit me from sharing some of the best stories, but if you're interested please don't hesitate to ask, I'll share what I can.
Aside from work, I enjoy traveling. I've been to 33 states (about to make it 34, lookout Wisconsin I'm coming for you!) and 8 foreign countries. To try to read a book a week, and I'm fairly successful at it. I play the guitar - not well enough to play in public, but I entertain myself and that's all that really matters. I'm into photography so be on the lookout for some of my photos popping up on here.
I also co-hosted a podcast that's called Enough Already. It's a humorous (did I mention I'm pretty funny?) take on pop culture, current events, and politics.
That's enough for now, don't want to give away all of my secrets just yet.
Looking forward to being a part of this platform it seems pretty solid!
If you'd like to know anything else about me, hit me up in the comments and I shall reply at my leisure!
Cheers thanks a lot!

Well say hi!
Welcome to steemit.
What's up Plastic Pennsylvania, welcome to Steemit! Looks like you've had your fair share of adventures so I'm expecting some good things from you ;)
Hmm, didn't realize Penn was a commonwealth. I'm originally from VA. It's a commonwealth. I actually don't know what a commonwealth is. Moving on.
Steemit is pretty interesting (I'm sort of new here too). I'm @danielshortell and I do short fiction here. Nice to meet you :)
Well hello and it's nice to meet you too Daniel.
Yes it's true, PA is a commonwealth. There are apparently only four; PA, VA, MA, and KT. From what I understand about it, it's just a throwback to when we were ruled by the British. Guess some places were just too lazy, or perhaps snooty to change over to "state". Aside from nomenclature there isn't any difference between a state and a commonwealth.
I'll be sure to check out some of your stories. I likes readin'.
Welcome to Steemit I wish you the best of luck. Stay warm Pennsylvania is cold this time of year
Good to see you here. I am from New Jersey. Sorry. I will follow, you sound interesting. Good luck to you. Looking forward to some interesting posts.
